Publisher's Summary

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Megan Fox showcases her wicked humor throughout a heartbreaking and dark collection of poetry. Over the course of more than seventy poems Fox chronicles all the ways in which we fit ourselves into the shape of the ones we love, even if it means losing ourselves in the process.

“These poems were written in an attempt to excise the illness that had taken root in me because of my silence. I’ve spent my entire life keeping the secrets of men, my body aches from carrying the weight of their sins. My freedom lives in these pages, and I hope that my words can inspire others to take back their happiness and their identity by using their voice to illuminate what’s been buried, but not forgotten, in the darkness,” says Fox.

Pretty Boys Are Poisonous marks the powerful debut from one of the most well-known women of our time. Turn the page, bite the apple, and sink your teeth into the most deliciously compelling and addictive books you’ll read all year.

The pain in her voice as she told her story

I loved everything about this, the way she told her painful story in poems is beautiful, I too think pretty boys are poisonous and have gone through something similar and still love that person and will always love them but they don’t deserve my love. Thank you to Megan Fox for sharing what you went through it has helped me realize that I’m going to be okay eventually.

A book as simply beautiful as Megan herself

This title is a must read, by audiobook and grab yourself a physical copy afterwards as well. I will be listening to this audiobook on repeat. The physical copy of the book and the art is perfection. This title has truly touched my heart and made me tear up. I was stunned with the way Megan’s writing is absolutely so unbelievably breathtaking. The topics in her poems are relatable to me (trauma, abuse, love, pain, miscarriage) and I simply cannot wait for more releases from her in the future. Do not wait to read this title. It opened my eyes and made me not feel alone. Such an awakening. I appreciate and love this release so much and it it’s a much needed read in the moment of life for myself and as I’m sure it will touch the hearts of many others too. I love you Megan. You are such a strong woman and you make me feel so alive and not alone after this read. So much love to you.

Poignant and graphic

This was more than I expected in terms of ambiguity (as there's almost none lol) but it was lovely, tragic and unfortunately relatable. Poetry normally isn't my thing, but this was poignant and twisted in equal measurements. Megan's reading is so much more impactful, and I hope she does more poetry. I'll be getting a physical copy as well.

Wow! Incredible.

This is book hit me deep in the soul. I cried. This is the most beautiful profound thing I have ever read. The moment I turned the last page, I re started the book. Phenomenal.
